for marking outgoing from local network, i put those rules in POSTROUTING.
i just want to know how about marking for downstream connection (from internet 
to my local network), where should i put this rule ? Note that i use 
different router for incoming and outgoing connection (multipath routing)..

Just a thought in my mind, script work ? latency check ?
i need to figure this out, because all local ISP seems to be applied this kind 
of rule to make price for Internet bandwidth more cheaper ..
And sadly i must take this ISP service because i cannot afford higher and 
clear channel bandwidth ratio.
